I have the base game & dlc on disk with Origin. Will amazon dlc work with it? Steam ones do not, so I worry

If I understand your question, you're adking if you download it on amazon if it will be compatible with origin... so you have use origin to connect it witb your game if you need to download it in the future. I downloaded it tgen used the code to save it on origin.

Yes you can add expansions bought other places than Origin. Origin makes it more convenient; however, Origin does direct you how to install other expansions (You'll have to find a code and type it in a specific place) and as long as you're patient and read the instructions, it's relatively painless. There are times when Origin has "clearance sales" on games. I buy almost everything from Amazon [because they are so reliable], but there have been times I've logged into Origin and saw the sales. On YouTube there is a guy who does "Lazy Game Reviews." He gets these expansion packs ahead of time and walks you through the town and content and he tells you if it's worth the money and if he likes it. Hope this helps!

This version of the game has a Simple physical manual&#65288;7 page), a page of TECH TREE AND SPECIFIC CHARTS. It has 15 DLC. It need a account of steam. The game program can download in steam, DVD disk can't need. These help to you? if not, Please ask me in simple English again, my English is poor.

I also have the same problem! I bought this game at June 28, 2015. I applied the DLC code and this didn't work. I'm very upset about that.

Just redeem the key origin: https://www.origin.com/en-us/store/. You can download there.

It comes without the DLCs. The PC version comes with a CD and a code. The game is in the CD, but you'll have to look on the internet on how to install it with no need to download the game from Steam and save time, if your network is crappy. Once downloaded/installed, download the DLCs directly from steam, with the code.

I think it only works on Steam if you buy a game code. Though, if you buy a disk, it should work with whatever program you have.

I ordered this, having the same problem. I ordered the physical copy, planning on copying the files onto an external hard drive then moving it to my laptop, but I tried redeeming it on steam just for kicks. It works! The physical copy comes with the activation code, which you are meant to put into the game during setup, but you can put it into steam and download it through steam. Pretty awesome!

I bought the disk version with the cable when it was on sale at a deep discount. All you need is the license key from the box by which you can log into your Steam account and activate the new game by entering the license key after which the latest edition (all patches included) will proceed to download to your games library. if you did use the disk, you wouldn't have all the patches and the game would patch after activation. Just using the code through steam, no drive is necessary.

I didn't buy this game off of Amazon, but you should be able to just buy the discs and install it directly from those. No Steam or online activation is required if you do it that way, plus it's cheaper. Unless you specifically want to pay more for a digital copy...

You MUST have a Steam account. Both games only work through the MIDDLEMAN of Steam, meaning that they emphasize On-line Multiplayer.

You end having to make a Origin account , which has all the games you buy online. I only downloaded it to my laptop. Unsure if they have limited download to just one computer. They give you a product code just like a CD copy .. I would just buy the CD though looking back..

I couldn't get mine to do anything with steam. It uses Uplay which behaves much like steam, it's been a Tom Clancy proprietary program for a while and as such is required to run the game regardless of how you purchase/install the program. Wish I had a better answer for ya, but it's a great game, though the pvp gets a little redundant pretty quick in comparison to a lot of shooters.

There should be no problem as long as you are both online and logged into Steam. It is the same game regardless of whether you got it from disk or digital download.

I believe so. I called origin customer support and they linked everything. I also registered my games through origin. So check there.

It actually uses Origin instead of Steam. The Origin client and an origin account are required to play though.

Yep, pretty much. It didn't even install the game files on my computer. It's all through Steam. This is the first time I have been disappointed with an order from Amazon.
